 Fair pumpkin update.  Sorry no pic, I am exhausted.  Just a note:
 
 I think (cross my fingers) I am at least on track with where I was last year.  But last year was a very slow start and this year is shamefully slow too.  20 DAP.  A bit under 3 ft circ.  Crazy small.
 
 I could improve the growth rate a lot with better roots/nutrition.  Probably I should have a goal of a plant twice as big, which should be possible because they've grown at half the speed I think I can achieve.  250 sq ft or so at the moment... Another idea is that cool nights might set them back a week.  I  might want to consider using the greenhouse in the future.  I so am happy with where things are at on this one.  The only thing that could be better is if I wasnt dealing with chronic exhaustion/low energy.  Retirement age should be 40.
